Charles Booker claimed the Democratic nomination for Kentucky’s open U.S. Senate seat Tuesday, winning his primary rematch against Amy McGrath.

In 2020, Booker narrowly lost the Senate primary to McGrath, but he was winning with 47% of the vote to McGrath’s 36% when the Associated Press called the race Tuesday night.
